KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Platanias

  • Renting a car from one of the top car rentals in Platanias is a decision you won't regret if you want to tour this Greek village extensively. With a rental car, you'll have total independence for your trip. This means you'll be able to travel anywhere you want across the city directly, swiftly, and comfortably at whatever time works best for you. You'll also easily reach towns neighboring the city, notably Sfakia, Kissamos, Kalyves, Epanochori, and Vryses.
  • The nearest airport to Platanias is Chania International Airport (CHQ). At this airport, located near Souda Bay on the Akrotiri Peninsula, there are several Platanias car rentals you can rent from. They include Avance, Trust, Avis, Hertz, Budget, and Sixt. The offices for these agencies are in the airport's arrivals area, while the pickup lot is a short walk from the terminal. Hence, you won't need ground transportation to get to either.
  • To achieve a smooth driving experience in Platanias, drive carefully since some mountain roads are not in the best condition, and you may note that a few road signs are also hard to read. You should keep an eye out for animals, primarily goats, that roam the countryside. These animals sometimes make their way onto the roads, creating a hazard. Also, note that local drivers are known to overtake cars at high speeds without alerting the driver ahead of them.
  • If you rent a car from one of the leading car rentals in Platanias, you need not worry about facing traffic jams unless you hire a vehicle during Summer, June through August. If you rent a car in any of these months, expect slight traffic on many roads leading to major tourist attractions.

Most of the roads within the urban parts of the village are tarmacked, but a good number of the roads outside it are dirt and gravel made.

Pros:

I had a reservation which was made online. Taxied over to the local office, 13 euros. Just to be told there was no rental available. They the asked me to wait for one hour to see if they would be able to accomadate the reservation. So after 90 mins and 13 euro taxi ride, no rental. Please don’t make reservations when you are not able to fulfill. They offered no solution and were of no help. I am a long time kayak and Avis customer that will give my business elswhere.

Cons:

No rental was available.
